CVE-2017-10193

Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of Oracle Java SE(subcomponent: Security). Supported versions that are affected are Java SE:6u151, 7u141 and 8u131; Java SE Embedded: 8u131. Difficult to exploitvulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access viamultiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successfulattacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker.Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized readaccess to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data. Note: Thisvulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients runningsandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that loadand run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and relyon the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability does not apply to Javadeployments, typically in servers, that load and run only trusted code(e.g., code installed by an administrator). CVSS 3.0 Base Score 3.1(Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector:(CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N).

Ubuntu-Description

It was discovered that OpenJDK did not properly restrict weak keysizes in some situations. An attacker could use this to speciallyconstruct an untrusted Java application or applet that could escapesandbox restrictions.
